Sorry I missed this one Al - been a bit snowed under with work.

I could visualise this - the stance, the bow caressing the strings of the violin to create magic - although when I played the violin I have to confess that I did not do it justice.

I like the way you have put this together - makes you think, reflect then re-read certain lines.

Much enjoyed.
